About AI-Gro
Empowering African farmers with artificial intelligence for sustainable agriculture
Revolutionizing African Agriculture
Founded in 2025, AI-Gro began as a research project at the intersection of agriculture and artificial intelligence. Our team recognized the unique challenges faced by African farmers and set out to create solutions that are both technologically advanced and practically accessible.
From Idea to Impact
What started as a simple idea to help smallholder farmers identify crop diseases has grown into a comprehensive agricultural assistant platform. Today, AI-Gro serves thousands of farmers across East Africa, helping them increase yields while reducing costs.
Our journey has been guided by constant feedback from the farming communities we serve, ensuring our solutions remain relevant and impactful.
